Grab some mulch starting Thursday

Hendersonville’s seasonal mulch giveaway program for city residents only is scheduled to begin Thursday. The city will have a backhoe operator on site at the Waste Water Treatment Plant at 80 Balfour Road to load material. The operator will be present Thursdays and Fridays from 3:30 to 7 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to noon.

Mulch will be given away until April 27 or until it’s gone. No vehicle larger than a pickup truck or small trailer will be loaded.

The city also will offer composted leaves as a separate material. These are leaves that were collected during the fall of 2012, ran through a chipper several times and composted for several weeks.

The compost can be added to vegetable and flower gardens.
